10) Sandro (Queens Park Rangers, £9.68m)
A surprise summer mover from Tottenham, where he became a popular figure under Harry Redknapp.
9) Emre Can (Liverpool, £10.56m)
An exciting young player signed in the summer from Bayer Leverkusen, but has struggled with injuries thus far.
8) Victor Wanyama (Southampton. £12.32m)
A standout player for the Saints so far this season, having also impressed last year after his move from Celtic.
7) Lucas Leiva (Liverpool, £12.32m)
A veteran of the Liverpool squad, the Brazilian has been reduced to something of a bit-part player under Brendan Rodgers so far this season.
6) Alex Song (West Ham United, £12.32m)
On loan at Upton Park from Barcelona. The former Arsenal midfielder has been excellent so far this year, attracting interest from a number of other clubs.
5) Fernando (Manchester City, £13.20m)
A summer signing from Porto, he is yet to set the world alight in a Manchester City shirt, but he has proven quality.
4) John Obi Mikel (Chelsea, £13.20m)
Far from a guaranteed starter at Chelsea, which emphasises the squad depth on display at Stamford Bridge.
3) Daley Blind (Manchester United, £13.20m)
A summer signing from Ajax, the World Cup star has made an impressive start to life at Old Trafford, and could be a key player as they aim to turn things around.
2) Morgan Schneiderlin (Southampton, £17.60m)
Southampton saw off interest from Arsenal and Tottenham to keep hold of the Frenchman this summer, and he has fully justified that decision with a number of excellent performances.
1) Nemanja Matic (Chelsea, £22.88m)
An excellent player who does the dirty work in the Chelsea midfield, while the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Oscar and Eden Hazard draw the major plaudits.
